How to Make Banana Cake With Coconut Icing
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, mash bananas. Add mashed bananas, milk, and eggs to the batter. Mix until well combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the icing: In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, sweetened shredded coconut, powdered sugar, and butter.
- Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Once the cake is completely cool, spread the coconut icing evenly over the top.
